An alleged Islamic Studies revision book for secondary school students purportedly rationalises the execution of those who leave Islam, according to lawyer and activist Siti Kasim.

"Since the news about wife beating came out, a Form 5 Student inboxed me and showed me this... Now, you tell me whether this is right or wrong?

This is horrendous!” Siti said on Facebook and Twitter, mentioning the education minister in both posts.

Siti's posting was a follow-up to her earlier post that called on Maszlee to explain an Islamic Studies question for Form Five students on permissible ways to “hit a disobedient wife," taken from a Sept/Oct 2018 model examination paper issued by the Selangor Education Department.

In response, Maszlee thanked Siti for bringing the exam question to his attention.
